🎶 How does it work?
We'll kick things off with a group warm-up and running drills before hitting the rooftop track for music-powered intervals, led by our England Athletics qualified RUN OF A KIND Run Coaches.
We'll run in timed intervals using effort levels rather than strict pacing, meaning everyone can challenge themselves at their own level while being part of a group.
